We've waited a long time for the follow-up to Patricia
Barber's Cafe Blue and it doesn't dissapoint. From now on there are only
two. Cassandra Wilson and Patricia Barber, the two most interesting and
adventurous female jazz vocalists, far in front of the others. Any female
jazz vocalist who can revisit "Light My Fire" and "She's A Lady"
with this much tenderness deserves all of our admiration. The Chicago-based
singer accompanies herself on piano, supported by a band that paints rare
and beautiful pictures that are the mirror of your subconscious. The Jazz
Record of The Year. **** ---Claude Cote---
